BOTTLE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 587,331, dated August3, 1897.

Application filed January 6, 1897. Serial No. 618,108. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, VICTOR RoUILLoT, a citizen of the United States,residing in the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania,have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bottles, which improvementis fully set forth in the following specification and accompanyingdrawing.

My invention consists ofan improved construction of bottle, the neckthereof having an extension or member which is deflected at an obtuseangle thereto, whereby an internal obtuse angle is formed at thejunction of said member and neck, the latter being also provided with acork or stopper having one end beveled to form an obtuse angle, saidangle of said cork being adapted to be forced or seated tightly in theinternal obtuse angle of said neck.

The figure represents a sectional view of the neck of a bottle, havingan extension de flected at an obtuse angle thereto embodying myinvention.

Referring to the drawing, A designates a bottle having a neck 13, whichis provided with a member or extension N, deflected at an obtuse anglethereto, so that an internal obtuse angle R is formed at the junction ofthe inner walls of said neck With the upper inner Wall or periphery ofsaid extension.

P designates a cork or stopper adapted to be inserted in the extensionN, it being noted that the inner extremity Q of said cork is beveled, sothat an obtuse angle is formed which contacts with the internal obtuseangle R, formed at the junction of the inner walls of the bottle.

It will be apparent from the foregoing that any inward pressure of thecontents of the bottle will force the obtuse-angled extremity of thestopper against the similarly-shaped internal angle R, and will thusprevent dislodgment of said stopper, it being also noted that by makingthe inner surfaces of the neck and extension continuous and unbroken,except at their junction where the internal angle R is formed, I producea bottle which can be easily and cheaply manufactured and one in whichthe stopper is satisfactorily retained in position under all conditions.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A bottle having a neck with a vertical portion and an extensiontherefrom at an obtuse angle thereto, and a cork with a beveled endseated against said vertical portion, said vertical and obtuse portionsbeing closed except at their ends.

2. The combination of a bottle, having a neck 13 and the extension Ndeflected at an angle thereto, whereby an internal obtuse angle R isformed and a stopper P, the latter having its inner extremity beveled atan obtuse angle and adapted to engage said internal obtuse angle formedWithin the neck of said bottle.
